What should a person expect to happen to the air pressure as they move from the base of a mountain to the top of the mountain?
As you move from the bottom to the top of the mountain, the air pressure decreases.

The air pressure will decreases as you go up the mountain. Density and air mass goes down too. Hope this helps!
Would you expect the the pressure exerted by water to be greater or less than the pressure exerted by the same amount of air?
water is more dense than air and it has atmospheric pressure also pushing down on it to make it have greater pressure than air.
How would you expect a system to change over time based on the second law of thermodynamics?
There can be all sorts of complicated changes; but the one thing that all such changes have in common is that ENTROPY INCREASES. Alternative formulation: the amount of usable energy gets reduced over time.
What two process does convection produce?
Convection (in the outer core) produces Earth's magnetic field, and (in the mantle) makes solid rocks flow, which is important for the plate tectonics.Air is a fluid and behaves in ways we expect of other fluids and temperature changes can cause density changes in water.

What is the basic instruments for measuring atmospheric pressure?
Atmospheric pressure is measured by a barometer. There are several types. The one most likely to be found in a home is an anaeroid barometer.
What the basic instrument for measuring atmospheric pressure?
This would be a barometer. When the air pressure drops, you can expect rain or other bad weather like thunderstorms. On the other hand, when the air pressure rise, you can expect better weather. You can tell by using a barometer.
What changes in air pressure would you expect if you carried barometer down a mineshaft?
the air pressure would increase because the amount of atmosphere above you increases
When the barometer falls can we expect good weather or bad weather?
Falling barometer means low pressure, which means a storm/ bad weather.
What can a barometers be used for?
A barometer measures barometric pressure, that is, atmospheric pressure. Because air flows from high pressure areas to low pressure areas, rising or falling barometric pressure tells us that we should expect a change in the weather. For example, a storm is often preceded by a drop in barometric pressure. A barometer is an indispensable tool for a meteorologist, a captain of a ship, or anyone else who needs to predict the weather.
How would you expect the reading on a barometer to change as a storm moves into your area?
Yes. You would expect the pressure to drop. A low pressure system consists of rising warm air that swirl around a center. Because the air is rising, it lowers the air pressure pressed on the ground. Because of this the pressure-sensing barometer will read that the air pressure is lower. Lower pressure means rain because the warm rising air makes clouds. Expect the pressure to drop as a storm is a low pressure system. Note that cyclones/hurricanes have even lower pressure.
What put such substances in the air?
if a meteorologist says that the air pressure is getting lower what you expect to see happen to Torricelli's mercury barometer
If a meteorologist says that the air pressure is getting lower what would you expect to happen to a Torricelli's mercury barometer?
The height of the Mercury column would decrease.
